MaryLynn: That was adorable to watch! Both Bruce and Gryphon have exquisite table manners (the occasional burp aside). You are obviously a wonderful baker, and your dh is funny, calling for a "cake intervention" as he did. You deserve to be proud of your boys for getting along so well together, and sharing the clean up duties. to Bruce! Thanks for sharing the fun!

My grandmother has a really great 'simple' carrot cake recipe (she guards her recipes pretty heavily...) and I will see if I can get a peak at it over the holidays. I have made lots, but none of the simple ones seem quite as good as hers.

As for easy but AMAZING carrot cakes I like this recipe from Sweetpolita's blog
